oatmeal raisin cookies


Kelly made delicious oatmeal raisin cookies the other day -- the old fashioned way. She used the recipe on the top of the Quaker brand Rolled Oats box (cylinder).

I sort of like the Quaker huge cylinder packaging. It reminds me of the enormous grain elevators Quaker Oats has at its plant in Cedar Rapids, IA.

Okay, now I am really conflicted: Quaker Oats, which I associate with healthy wholesome living is owned by PepsiCo in their Food and Beverage division. PepsiCo is primarily a soft drink, to my way of thinking. Certainly not your good-for-the-physique kind of food . . .Well, I will definitely take some time getting used to the bigger picture of Quaker Oats.

Anyway, Kelly used a familiar, tried-and-true recipe and whipped up some delicious cookies!
We tried to make them last, but the whole 4 dozen were gone . . . gone . . . gone in no time at all.
